I'm sorry paul, or maybe i'm not... But that was a slap in Tommy's face. If you've ever seen his DA in person, you'd KNOW it could be in a magazine and make every other DA in a magazine look absolutely sickly.

In the mid 200 hp's at the wheels IMO, it is just as easy and cheap to build an NA VTEC Honda as it is to build a supercharged one. But at the same HP level, the SC one will walk on the NA one simply due to torque, although the NA one will get better gas mileage and be more reliable. For overall HP, turbo is the answer.. No doubt about it.

And for the record, Greg can drive better than 90% of the people on the OK forums, he's proven it before at autocross the few times he came out. And his car would walk on 90% of the OK forum cars aswell, again no doubt about it. I have NO problem walking on Mustangs, Vettes and many others with twice the cylinders. And he's the same speed as me, nearly identical.

hey quit raggin on Tom's busted - I mean boosted DA

Everybody since the beginning of the internal combustion engine has been debating which is better N/A, nitrous, SC, or turbo? Yet nobody has ever won that debate... Each requires a different level of dedication and all seem to have a specific application where they work best.

Got bored so I took a 03' Tiburon GT for a drive at a dealer. The salesguy is like "its peppy huh!" ... "my fucking accord is faster than this pos" lol. Gave er' shit first, 2nd, 3rd... I swear it took damn near 20mins to reach 80k. Returned to the stang and realized how stiff a mustang clutch is. uck.

3) tommy did jsut one day slap a turbo on. there fast civics with turbo's like als d15b civic, and then there is tommy. for comparisons sake, its a lot bigger of a build on tommy;s car than what garage five built for brendan
4) last ive seen brendans best was 248 whp, no where near 270, and there is a huge jump in work to make that much more power NA so i doubt he is hitting it now

Thats a pretty fucking stupid opinion coming from someone whos car likely isnt even 1/10th of what tommys is, and probably has about 1/20th of the knowledge.

What happened to the Post I did as I reply lastnight/this morning? Anyways I guess I have to write again!

First off I have nothing but complete respect for tommy and people who turbo their car, I have gona to Tommy countless times for advice! I am reffering to the people who just eBay a bolt on kit leave it as that, the reason I said "no offence Tommy" is I didn't want him to think I was aiming it at him when I say anyone can slap a turbo on!

Jeff, Relax dude, as for you walking all over GSR's are you sure dude? I have yet to lose to a equally modified Ls!

Craig, I totally agree that totally came across as a slap in the face, it is not meant like that, sorry if that is how it was taken Tommy!

Porchora, glad I could provide you with a laugh, and yes I do have a clue about the automotive world! Just I Hate the guys that eBay cheap POS turbo kits and compare themselves with the Tommy's of the world!

Darnold again it came out wrong, sorry if you are pissed that it offened tommy, it wasn't meant in that regard!

Greg and Jeff, the driving comment was a joke, I have seen Greg race he is a good, that iswhy "LOL" was after that statement!

Seriously what motor is in this car???

well my RS is faster than my white car was, and the RS hangs with the type R, and the RS isnt equally modified to your fat pig.
enough bench racing, come autoX go drag racing, do something other than sling mud on the internet.

LMAO I love it. No offence taken. I was wonderig why you were apologizing to me before I even knew wth you were talking about lol.

Normally I woulda taken offence to that, but the fact that he apologized and straighted things out on here and MSN I think softened the slap

I was once that kid taht bolted a kit onto a stock motor. and it blew 1 week later, what did I expect. Month later, I throw kit back onto a stock motor and it lasted forever cause I learned. It's even in a CRX now back to NA form still truckin along!....Running 15's! WOOT! lol
